I think this 66 Lark may be seafoam green:
The photos appear to be washed out though - it should be greener than it looks in the pictures.
There was a guy in LA who had a seafoam green GT Hawk for sale in the last couple of months. I couldn't find any pictures though. It's the only one I've ever seen.

My wife's '55 E7 pickup is painted 1960 Stude truck green--forget the name, but that's the color we had matched up. She wanted a Stude color but didn't really care about it being from the correct year. The wheels are 1960 Stude Truck red.
I don't know if this is "seafoam" to you, but it's darn close to what I think of as "seafoam."

Thanks to all. My friend wants to paint his Vespa scooter Seafoam, but needed a color sample to make sure of his choice. You folks is great. Yes you is. jimmijimsigpicAnything worth doing deserves your best shot. Do it right the first time.
